A Once A Month Course Over 6 Months In Kazami-Ryu Shibari!
Want to get started on your Shibari journey in the Kazami-Ryu style? This course of classes once a month for 6 months will take you through the entire curriculum of Kazami-Ryu Shibari Level 1, and culminate with a testing structure to ensure your understanding of our fundamental tie, the Kazami-Ryu Munenawa (also known as a Gote or TK). Those who complete all the curriculum and pass the testing structure will receive a certificate of completion of Kazami-Ryu Shibari Level 1, and will be able to move on to Level 2 classes.
The classes will be held on the morning of the 2nd Saturday of each month, for a total of 6 classes. You must attend all classes to be able to complete the curriculum, if you miss a class you can make it up either via a private lesson, or where possible we will offer makeup classes on weeknights along the way (for a small extra cost).
There are no prerequisites for this series of classes, other than having your own rope to bring! You will need 4 hanks of rope (7m~8m lengths), we recommend Jute, Hemp, Synthetics designed for rope bondage, or a high quality cotton such as we sell in Our Shop.
This course will give you a solid understanding of the basics of Shibari, and allow you to expand on your knowledge in the future. We teach in a manner that continually builds on the previous learnings, in order to give students the best possible start to their journey.
No refunds within 7 days of the first lesson, or after the start of the course.
